Theoretic analysis of five‑constituent theory as core guiding role of Tuina
At present, the guiding theories of Tuina present a diversified landscape, yet a definitive core principle remains unclear. Manual manipulation is the fundamental characteristic of Tuina. By directly targeting distinct anatomical layers of the human body from the exterior to the interior, namely the skin, muscles, tendons, vessels, and bones, collectively termed the "five body constituents", therapeutic effects are achieved. Therefore, this analysis explores the five-constituent theory as the core guiding role of Tuina from the perspectives of diagnostic differentiation, manual intervention, and therapeutic effects of manipulation.
